the REPUBLICAN, inadvertently struck
upon the wrong Golden. The telephone

little confusion ensued in getting the cor

life. The information that came through
the telephone that Mr.. and Mrs. Colder
did not live together was no doubt cor
rect as far as 1t related to some otbel
family of that name, but 1t did not appl,
to Peter Golden and his wife who LIVED
happily together until her death.

John Adams at Home.

The venerable historian George Ban
croft contributes to the Century some
personal "reminiscences which are ac-
companied by full-page portraits of
John Adams and Oliver Ellsworth.
We quote as follows concerning his
visit in 1916 to the second President of
the United States: I'VE arrived early
IL the afternoon. The venerable ex-
President received us cordially in the
parlor of his homestead at Quincy;
and so did the wife of his youth, the
accomplished woman now known to
the world by the publication of two
volumes of her own letters, and two
more of letters which she received
from her husband. Several Younger
persons, seemingly their grandchil-
dren, came in and went out as occa-
sion served, and it was plain that the
aged man was thoroughly well minis
tered to by youthful attendants whose
whole demeanor was marked by rev.
erence and affection. A more respect
able or more lovely family group, of
which the head is an octogenarian, can
hardly be conceived of.
presently the tea-table was spread
in the middle of the room, and my
friend and sat down with the family.
1t was indeed a great privilege for one
just out of college to sit at table with
the venerated man, under whose col
ossal courage and inspiring eloquence
the men of the Congress of 1776, who
had not the gift of speaking in public,
confidently sheltered themselves. He
did not look younger than the record
of his birth indicated, but he was hale
and vigorous; and as l sat near him l
could not but notice that he carried
his full cup of tea to his lips as safely
as anyone around him, without splitting
drop from tremor. The table was
spread with the neatness and SIM
plicity that prevailed at that day in
New England homes. Could a for
eigner have looked in and seen the
second President of the United States
at his sufficient but simple and unos-
tentatious meal, the central figure in
the group of his own family, it must
have been confessed that his manner
of life presented perfect pattern for
a republican chief magistrate in re-
tirampnt
